More Than a Photoshoot
When you experience one of your best friends get engaged and you get to be there to see the expression on their face, all their emotion, and the unsurmountable love, it's one of the best feelings you will ever have. It was supposed to be just a photoshoot of my friend Lauren and Danielle, but little did she know that there was something so much more special planned. We asked the owner of Something Old Dayton if she could be in on the plan. Her role was just to say that the studio room beside us became available to use half way through our photoshoot. When the owner came in and told us about the other room, Danielle walked in first and saw Patrick standing there among a background of flowers and paintings holding a lily, her favorite flower. She was shocked to say the least and overwhelmed with emotion. He got down on one knee and asked her the big question. As she said yes, I was about to cry but I had to keep focusing on the photos. These are the moments I live for and these are the moments I crave to capture - the pure joy and raw emotion we experience.
